At the helm of Baobabtrees, my strategic management skills have been instrumental in delivering comprehensive supply chain solutions and business development services. Our team's commitment to efficiency and sustainability is unwavering, as we aim to empower the industrial growth of African nations.
My co-founding venture at Valternative Energy further reflects a passion for innovation and environmental stewardship, leading South Africa's charge in e-mobility. With a clear focus on renewable energy solutions, we are committed to improving the quality of life across Africa. Balancing humility with dedication, my leadership is defined by a mission to empower communities and drive transformative change in the China-Africa economic landscape.

I have lived in South Africa for 21 years, where I have deeply explored various sectors of African business, gaining extensive cross-industry experience. I have hands-on expertise in business planning, negotiations, complex project management, and the localization of Chinese enterprises and investments, as well as comprehensive corporate management skills.

I look forward to working with the Baobabtrees team and partnering with like-minded companies to open new chapters in Sino-African business collaboration.
